Sometimes it may show up as a range (minimum hrs - maximum hrs) and when it shows the indication ‘Full’ it highlights that the request can concern the full range of the (time) slot. |

Factors that may affect the price you are presented with:
your activity type specifically (i.e. Event, Meeting or Production). It may also vary based on
the type of your hire ('Whole Space' = private hire or ‘Sub Space' = non private hire),
who will provide F&B for your hire ('Venue provides' or ‘Bring Your Own'), your
Charge Basis (ex. 'per hour', 'per day', 'minimum spend’, 'price per person’) and based on which
date & time you are interested in plus the season they fall under (if the Venue Host has set seasonality as a price determinant factor).
Multiple options may be available for you to choose from or you may be presented with no options if the Venue Host pricing is very narrow defined.
For instance, in the above example there is no specific pricing for a minimum spend but there are F&B options (i.e. coffee break) which will be charged on top of your hire fee

In the mobile view, you will be able to make your custom selections either when you scroll to the 'Pricing’ section (to check out pricing options) or when you initiate your request procedure (where you can apply modifications while you formulate your request).
Watch out: Without having prior defined your desired date & time the price you will see will always be relative to the minimum (starting ‘from’) price.
If you define your date & time right from the Search Results page then you would see a more accurate price. This can be better understood by viewing the following case:
